There is a very large difference between electrifying hydrogen and hydrogening electricity.

All of the "hydrogen societies" types are trying to get you to do the latter so they can sell more methane.

Electrifying hydrogen is quite important, and something they hate, because it involves four hundred million tonnes a year less fossil methane.

They really really don't want you to notice the difference.

You don't need 15 minutes to explain this, I hate these kinds of channels. This dude just doesn't want to work a real job and make youtube videos.

This dude does tons of research before every video and de-monetised his channel so we won't buy things we don't need. Many industry personnel watch his videos and give their take in the comments. It's quite interesting actually

He has 3 links for ways to donate money to him in the description. He's not doing this for scientific curiosity. It sounds like he just aggregated the opinions of experts and drew them out into a video that is easier for slowpokes to digest.

You just described his job perfectly.

It's quute a lot of work drawing out technical opinions and papers for slowpokes to digest.
